Taoiseach Bertie Ahern is due back in the witness box at the Mahon Tribunal today for a fourth day of questions about his personal finances.

The tribunal is investigating large sums of money that Mr Ahern received from wealthy businessmen and friends in the 1990s.

It is focusing in particular on a number of foreign exchange transactions linked to the money.

Yesterday, an opinion poll found that less than one-third of voters believe the Taoiseach's explanations over the past couple of weeks, while 60% say he should resign if he is found to have lied to the tribunal.

Considering all the bad media soccer gets (overpaid prima donnas etc etc) it's only fitting that a gesture like this gets attention.

A few weeks back Leicester were playing Nottingham Forest in the English League Cup. Forrest were a goal up at half time but during the interval Clive Clark, Leicester player, collapsed and had a heart attack. The match was subsequently abandoned, with Forrest's consent.

The reply was the other night, and to say thank you for the gesture Leicester allowed Forrest to score from the kick off, to restore their lead.

On a slightly controversial note, the offer was not made public, and so many fans were a bit peeved that they'd lost money on their First Goalscorer bet...

Should the Irish Rugby Team lose to France tomorrow expect a Doss Spot tirade, as hosted by YouTube.

"How f**king dare anyone out there make fun of ROG after all he's been through?!! He's been ridiculed by the French media, someone sent round that picture of him in Coppers. He's made us aware of Tesco, Samsung, AIB, Foreign Villas and you people still want him to win some rugby games? HE'S A HUMAN!!!" etc etc
